The Atlantic doesn’t just report the news. For 160 years, we’ve been questioning the status quo—and challenging readers to rethink the world around them. From concept to creation—no matter the medium or brand —our work is measured against a tradition of unrivaled storytelling. That’s a high standard, but so is our ambition: to connect the most discerning audience on the web with the world’s leading brands. We're Atlantic Re:think: a group of creatives, journalists, producers, and analysts, all in pursuit of that perfect idea.
We're hiring an enthusiastic, scrappy, experienced Campaign Manager to lead the planning, execution, and delivery of thought-provoking, ambitious, bold campaigns with our advertising partners. This position will report to our Associate Director, Creative Solutions.
Primary responsibilities:
Manage the production of branded content programs by working with in-house design and content teams as well as external vendors (photographers, video production companies, artists, writers, etc.). Experience in project managing video production a plus.
Maintain detailed tracking of production elements by building production timelines, negotiating budgets, coordinating invoices from vendors, etc.
Serve as client-facing project lead communicating with senior clients in person, via email, and over the phone
Ensure client's marketing objectives are represented in branded content and achieved in campaign performance
Track campaign performance by utilizing our analytics suite and reporting results to clients
The ideal candidate:
Pragmatic, enthusiastic, and empathetic
A natural executor with the ability to get the best out of the people and the projects you oversee
A calm, cool, and collected mind—a constitution that affords “grace under fire”—coupled with a personality inclined toward perpetual positivity and a sense of possibility
Understanding of Content Management Systems, front-web design (basic HTML), and relevant design software (Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign) a plus
Familiarity with research and measurement tools like SimpleReach, comScore, @Plan, and Omniture is a plus
Across Atlantic Media, generally, the firm looks for two “pillar gifts” in its candidates. In all of us, these are more aspirational than actual, but they are central in our intentions.
